I’m curious who is planning on selling their dress after the wedding. In my ideal world I’d frame my dress ala the Real Housewives but I don’t have the space for that. I think its highly silly for my dress to sit in a box in hopes my daughter will wear it (what my mom did, ha, my mom was about 40 pounds lighter than I am, no way!) and I also spent about $5000 on the dress so recouping some of that would be nice…

My one concern is that my dress is going to be significantly altered from its size since I am so short torsoed (the entire bodice and back have to be custom done) so would anyone really buy it?

So, are you selling your dress? Did you sell it already? How much of the retail did you get back for it? Was it heavily altered?

I chose other – having my dress custom made by a Chinese shop overseas. Plan on doing a trash the dress session at some point after the wedding. Haven’t worked out the specific details yet but I love the idea!

My FI is for some reason vehemently against me selling or getting rid of my dress. I told him he’s going to have to frame it or help me preserve or display it in that case…I don’t want it to just sit in the closet.
